I too had an enjoyable and tanning day at MAN today… Herein a few results – I think Grey has already made most of the commentary necessary, except to say that the British Jet also says “Boeing MD90” on the engine cowl and to add that its nice to see a couple of coal-burning 737s still kicking around!

Thanks for all the comments.
Where are the shots taken in the thread opener? Is it somewhat accesible by public transport?
Sadly not accessible by public transport, but very accessible if you have transport – some argue that this is a good thing as it keeps the masses away! :dev2: Its a great area for photos though (arguably even better when they are departing the other way because they you can be right by the rotation point) and the whole runway is photographable without problems because there’s a grass bank that allows shooting over the fence no ladders required.
Can I just rent a car in the UK? Being that the steering wheel is on the wrong side. Or do they also rent out cars with lefthand drive. It’s not the driving on the wrong side that I dislike. It’s the position of the gear that’s a big annoyance.
Yes you can. No rental cars with steering on the left side, but if you ask nicely they might rent you an automatic.

It’s inaccessible by public transport, tenthije.
If it weren’t that’s where I’d be taking photographs from….. 🙁
Shame.

Great shots! Where are the shots taken in the thread opener? Is it somewhat accesible by public transport? Might be nice for next years spotting season!
